dailycaller.com ^ | 09/25/2016

Posted on 09/25/2016 11:49:17 PM PDT by Helicondelta

Before Republican nominee Donald Trump and Democratic nominee Hillary Clinton debate each other Monday, Clinton’s podium needed some adjustments.

Trump is a towering 6’2″ and Clinton is only 5’4″. To even the height field, Clinton’s podium now has plywood placed in the middle, according to WABC Radio Host Rita Cosby. The WABC journalist gained exclusive access to the podiums, which not only show Clinton’s is now a bit larger than Trump’s, but that there is also a small box Clinton might stand on.

Today when announced the announcer got confused. Trump is to be on stage right which is not the side it sound like it is. Lots of possibility for confusion. First one announced may go to the wrong podium.

She's 5'7"...

So this is what....I wanna be big like you??

Just plain stupid.

Anyone remember the Queen of England saying..."Bring my box please....I wanna be big."

FOX just said
6’3”. Compared to 5’4”

The oversized podium is going to do just the opposite she thinks it will. She knows nothing about stage craft Remember she got what she demanded

I trust there will be a gradual slope for her to reach the top of it. No way is she strong enough to get up any steps.

They look the same, but I guess that yellow thing is what she is going to stand on? This should be interesting, Trump is 6’3” she is 5’4” so I assume she is going to want to be almost a foot higher in the air. But when she passes out, that’s a foot more she will fall.

TRUMP NEEDS JUST ONE QUIP TO DEMOLISH HILLARY
this hits the anti-Washington sentiment out there bigtime

"Hillary's extensive debate preparations are the “hallmarks of a career
politician who has spent too much time seeking and clinging to power.”

So they must be planning to pan to Trump and Hillary after Trump is positioned behind his lectern and Hillary struggles to climb her podium box behind her lectern. (technical nit picking about the terms)

Will fat black eunuch help her climb Mount Everset?

Will she be hooked up to a flying Peter Pan harness?

Will her lectern be stoutly anchored to the stage floor lest she and it topple to the floor?

Will some braveheart in the audience play Randy Newman’s “ Short People” on their iPhone...loudly?

Her stage managers have to consider these slapstick comedic possibilties, don’t they.

Will 4Chan highjack the video feed to insert Chevy Chase falling down routines?

Gosh, tense anticipation for her flying monkey minions... hoping for collective fainting attacks in her audience.

Starting popcorn prep now.

They better use 3/4” ply for Hillary’s booster seat. That 1/4” stuff just won’t hold up. Maybe add in a few stiffener ribs for good measure. Perhaps a full 2x4 subframe just to be sure. All glued and screwed.
